Flats vs Drums
From my humble experience, I find that the truly obsessed chicken wing fans prefer the flats. You won’t find any judgement here, you should eat whatever you like. I don’t want to encourage anything other than you finding what you prefer. Does it really matter anyway? I think it’s just something else to fill empty space with banter. What is productive is telling you why I prefer flats:
- I can always get 30 flat jumbo party wings on my large Big Green Egg and they don’t touch.
- Having flats only cook more consistent, remember we are about the perfect chicken wing and consistency is key.
- I like eating the flats better. I also perfected the method to eat the chicken wings to get the perfect ratio of skin to chicken. It’s an art and to me much more pleasurable than the experience of eating a drum
- I turn flats into a scoop or boat and you just can’t do that with drums.
The perfect chicken wing on a consistent basis is a flat wing, facts are stubborn!
